I apologize if I should have asked this another way (PM?); My post asking for help in the Taiwan thread was published but does not seem to appear in the active topics/posts. Is there something I'm missing, please? Thank you.

You're not wrong, Yesyes; you probably have seen other threads appear in 'view active topics' at some point! What happens is 'general' Square threads, such as 'How can you tell who the tourists are in your city?' or threads about areas that don't have their own dedicated sub-forum, e.g. 'Why no D.C/Mid-Atlantic sub-forum?' will show up that way, but posts in specific city/region/country sub-fora will not. It helps so that if someone in, say, PDX, asking where to find the very best pie money can buy doesn't get posts from people in Birmingham offering up Codswallop's Pie Hole in their neighbourhood as the best of the best you could ever desire- somewhat useless info for the original poster.
